Fostering
I've been thinking about fostering dogs for a long time. The rescue threads on DOL make me so sad. I've helped out by making donations - financial and non-financial. OH has taken photos and I've made music videos but all along I've wanted to foster a dog and make a real difference in that dog's life. So I applied to Australian Working Dog Rescue. On Sunday 8 July, we passed the yard check and we are hoping to have our first foster dog soon.
We have some rules.
I'm nervous but excited.
We have some rules.
- Only one foster dog at a time.
- No dogs directly from the pound
- Dog needs to have been either kennelled first or with another carer first to confirm no illness and dog aggressiveness given that we cannot quarantine and Elbie and Hoover's well-being must come first
- Preference is Kelpies and Kelpie crosses
I'm nervous but excited.
